The Great Chemist's Baking Fail [OTA]

[toomanynitrogens]

Aidan had spent all afternoon in the holodeck bakery he'd created for himself, making and remaking two elaborate cakes until they were as close to perfect as he felt he could get. And what's the purpose of gorgeous, delicious cake? To be eaten, of course. He set them both on a small cart and began pushing them towards Ten Forward. They'd be eaten the fastest there and honestly, he couldn't wait to hear what they'd think about his work.

But then something went wrong.

Maybe the ship hit a bump in its usually smooth flight. Maybe he took a corner too fast. Maybe someone wasn't looking and ran into him. Whatever the cause, Aidan and his desserts tumbled towards the floor. He reached for them, trying to keep at least one intact in its covered dish....

[OOC: The first cake is a Swedish princess cake and the second is a tiramisu cake. I'm open to any sort of reaction people want to play out.]

Cat wasn't expecting anyone to chase him - no one had before now, they just gave in. So he wasn't so much running away as dancing and was, therefore, easily caught.

He looked over his shoulder with a surprised expression. He hugged the cake to him and back up, away from Aidan. "I told you, it's mine."

"You said I had to chase you. I did and I caught you. So now it's mine again." Aidan stayed relatively close to Cat to keep him from running off any further.

"What do you think I am, a dog?" He looked upset about that idea. And was not letting go of the cake.

"You're acting like one. Saw something you wanted, took it, and tried to run off." Aidan reached, but Cat had it over his head there wasn't much chance he'd be able to stretch that high. All he had to do was run down a straight hall and it'd be his for good.

Cat shook his head. "No, it was mine." And he was bored, arguing about it. Although he did get bored easily. He slipped out around Aidan and took off down the corridor.
